so can i make do without? or can anyone suggest where i might get one?

cheers

Huh?

I made my own.... but most places should sell a suitable tool for under £20.

Are you on about this one Laser Brake Caliper Rewind Tool from Halfords Price £20.99

It does work fine with Skoda calipers even though it doesn't specify it.

Yep, I bought a Laser one from my local motor factors for £20-ish

Same one I bought from Halfords, used it 3 weeks ago. A definite must have for working on the rear brakes.
